I just couldnt get Soul out of my head. Everytime I think about him I get this funny feeling, a feeling I never felt in a long time and it felt good. Good to know someone knew my name, to know there is a person I could think about and not my father. I use to have friends when my mother was here but when she died some people blamed it on me, just like my father. Sometimes I wonder what would my life be if my mother was still here. Would it be the same or would people talk to me and be my friend? I sighned. It dosent matter now, shes gone and she cant come back. Silent tears made they way down my face and I didnt bother to remove them. I walked through the crowd of the school having a feeling something is going to happen.
"Oh look who it is?"
I knew that voice. Mia. I hate her so much, she use to be my friend. But something happen between us and we never talked again. I kepted my head low and kepted walking.
"Oh someone is a little grumpy today" she said walking behind me.
Just ignore her, I kepted saying in my head.
"Mommy isnt here anymore. Daddy girl aint welcoming here anymore. Grow up and realize this isnt child play anymore Shadow." she said laughing.
I walked a little bit faster but she kepted coming up to me.
"leave me alone"I whispered. From the coner of my eye I could see her face changing.
"What was that?" she asked.
I lefted my head up, just a little bit and glared. It wasnt one of my death glares, just a glare that says "leave me alone".
"I said leave me alone" I said a little louder. She started laughing.
"So baby freak can talk after all." she said louder so people can hear. I hate when she do that. People started looking at me.
"Say Shadow you know the day thats coming up right?"sha ask. I turn around to face the blondie who came out of no where. Mia started laughing again.
"Everyone know what she's going to do on that day. Skip school, dress in all black, and cry like a baby. Thats all she do anyways."Mai said. My face flush, and my body became tensed. She started laughing again. I balled my hands into fists.
"You know Im glad your mother isnt here anymore. If she was people would be still kissing your feet like your a queen". She said. I felt more tears hit the coners of my eyes. Instead of saying a comback I ran. I ran as fast as I can. I didnt care if I skip school.
"Yea Shadow. Run, thats all you good for!" I heard Mai yelled after me. I block her voice and everything around me out. The only thing I could hear was my thoughts. I ran to my mother grave. Once there I cried and slid infront of it. What Mai said really hit the outside of my feelings wall.
"I tried mom. I tried to keep my wall up. But I cant take it anymore"I cried. I brought my knees up and pressed my forehead against them. What Mai said kept repecting it self in my head.
"You know Im glad your mother isnt here anymore." My toes curled up. She went to far.
"What are you doing here?" I looked up at the voice and press my lips together. It was Soul. He looked down on me.
"Shouldnt you be at school?" He asked taking a seat next to me.
"Shouldnt you?" I asked. He smiled that creepy smile, the one showing his sharp teeth.
"I was on my there when I saw you running here"He said.
"So you just decide to come and check on me?"I asked. He just smirk and look behind me. It took him a moment to read what was written on the grave, once he reread it twice he looked back at me.
"Your mom she's-"
"Dead."I said with my head down, my bangs cover my eyes casting a shadow of loneness.

First off, I didn't read the first chapter. I'll try my best to understand what's going on though.

Red is for any grammar, spelling, or the simple mistakes.
Those in blue are more of wording.

None dared talk to me, and now Royal came in my life and did this to me. I groaned. Stupid men and their charm. I gazed out the window, not even paying attention to what Ms.What-It had to say. The only thing I put up was "tomorrow we are going to have a test" and "we have a new student". The new student might be some stuck kid who just wanna be down and a annoying brat added to my life. I just don't exactly understand what that sentence meant. "just wanna be down"? I don't really get what that means.

" Everyone this is Royal McJohnson" Ms. What-It said. You need a dash between What and It, and there's no need for a period between Mc and Johnson.
My head whipped around so fast I thought it might fall off. My eyes stared in disbelief as Royal, the boy I met this morning, stood in front of the room. He looked at me and smirked. I banged my head on the table and groaned. The girls in the class all had hearts in their eyes and started fangirling over him. WHY! MUST GOD DO THIS TO ME!, I THOUGHT WE NEVER SEE EACH OTHER BUT HERE HE IS STANDING IN FRONT OF THE GODDAMN CLASSROOM SMIRKING AT ME LIKE HE WON SOME GAME!. ARE YOU PUNISHING ME FOR THAT TIME I MESS UP THAT BITCH MAI FACE?. You don't need a period behind a question mark or an exclamation point. BECAUSE IF YOU ARE I'M SO,SO,SO,SO SORRY!


You might want to change the words "put up" to "heard" or something like that.
Overall, the plot is pretty interesting. :) Sorry if I sounded a little harsh too.
“To the world you might be one person, but to one person you might be the world”

“A friend is someone who understands your past, believes in your future, and accepts you just the way you are.”

“Truly great friends are hard to find, difficult to leave, and impossible to forget.”

Hi! I'm Teardrop and I thought I might review this today!

First of all, this is really short. I haven't read the first chapter though. And usually, in a chapter from a novel, a few different things happen. Try and ellaborate more, and be sure to include the six senses. Step into the characters shoes and paint a picture for the reader. I'm sure with hard work you can make this at least three times it's size.

Anyway, armstronge pretty much caught all the grammar mistakes in this chapter. But here's a couple nitpicks of mine.

Giselle97 wrote:" Everyone this is Royal Mc.Johnson" Ms. What It said.
There should be a comma after McJohnson and before the quotes.

Giselle97 wrote:WHY! MUST GOD DO THIS TO ME!, I THOUGHT WE NEVER SEE EATCH OTHER BUT HERE HE IS STANDING INFRONT OF THE GODDAMN CLASSROOM SMIRKING AT ME LIKE HE WON SOME GAME!. ARE YOU PUNISHING ME FOR THAT TIME I MESS UP THAT BITCH MAI FACE?. BECAUSE IF YOU ARE IM SO,SO,SO,SO SORRY!


That should look somewhat like this:

Why must God do this to me? I thought we'd never see eachother, but here he is, standing in front of the classroom. Smirking at me like he won some game! Are you punishing me for that time I messed up that bitch Mai's face? Because if you are, I'm so so so sorry!

Or you know something like that. And also there should be only one punctuation mark after one sentence : )

Keep writing! ( Sorry if that sounded harsh, I've been in a bad mood lately: )

And are the doctors dancing in, while the ambulances sing. Another boy without a sharper knife. The moment, that's where I kill the conversation, wrap this up with a knife that loves to feel. How do you know how deep to go before it's real?
